A web drying simulator that lets companies who use infrared, convection drying, or hot air impingement for their wide web drying applications evaluate high-speed RF drying and determine suitability for their own operation is available from Radio Frequency Co., Inc. of Millis, Massachusetts.

The Macrowave™ OmniTherm™ Simulator lets companies evaluate RF technology for their own application, which eliminates the heat-up and cool-down times required by conventional dryers, minimizes the quantity of product in the drying cycle, and reduces changeover time. Proven effective for webs up to 160" wide, RF drying features preferential heating to selectively dry the wettest sections of the web assuring uniform moisture content.
